JinJer: Return of the "Crotch V" (Yes, PANTS!)

[socalrules]

There is an Italian deli here where almost everything is amazing (not a fan of the stuffed shells). The owners are from Italy and their food makes you realize how good real Italian food is compared to the Americanized version. I only go three or four times a year because it's about an hour away but I stock up when I am there. I even bring a cooler. 

As to whether Jinger is using BC because she isn't pregnant yet, look at Michael Bates. She has been married more than a year but hasn't gotten pregnant even though she obviously wants to be and is likely actively trying. Some people just don't get pregnant right away. Some people could have unprotected sex for years and never get pregnant. The fact someone has few to no children doesn't mean they are using birth control. I have a friend who had been married four years, and does not use birth control, yet she hasn't gotten pregnant even though she wants to. She is only now talking about going to a fertility specialist.

I'm Jewish (as if you couldn't tell), and I have a whole boatload of issues with Israel. A lot of American Jews are only just starting to get out of the "any criticism of Israel is anti-Semitism" mindset, and many, like me, feel that how Israel treats Palestinians flies in the face of Judaism's values and that the country is becoming a theocracy, exacerbated by the fact that a lot of the young liberals get the hell out of Israel as soon as they're able or don't have a whole lot of kids, leaving the crazy fundies.

I still don't get as involved in activism surrounding the issue beyond donating to human rights organizations that help Palestinians, because even though criticizing Israel isn't anti-Semitic (just like criticizing the Chinese government doesn't mean you hate all ethnically Chinese people), there is still some pretty nasty anti-Semitism in some corners of that movement. It's a bit like if a movement dedicated to combating the policies of Robert Mugabe blamed African-Americans who've been in the US since the slave trade for what Mugabe does.

Zionism has a lot to answer for.

eta:  You don't have to be Israeli or Jewish to be Zionist.

Western Bagels in LA had some legit bagels last time I checked.

Not a bagel person. That SF sourdough though....

The ends are a bit uneven, which usually means that they are damaged. It also makes the bottom of her hair look a bit unkempt. It's nothing serious but she could use a trim. 

Maybe we need to give her some time. 

First six month in marriage: get used to pants.

Next six month in marriage: get used to shorter hair?

Life long west coaster here. No, we do not. Ours are lies and broken dreams compared to east coast. 

[TuringMachine]

I guess I don't mean to say bagels out here are bad. It's just that when I'm craving a bagel, I'm craving the bagels I grew up on. For better or worse the bagels here are not what I'm looking for, so I end up disappointed.

As a wheat allergic person, I would give anything for two things: 1. Actual fried donuts. Not cake donuts, real donuts. 2. A chewy plain bagel.

I have to watch carbs pretty closely. Either one puts me over half of what I can eat in a day. I feel your pain.

I'm fortunate in that I can find most baked goods in a wheat free version that actually tastes good. But bagels and donuts - those are just impossible IMO.

Because it outlines the front of her privates and supposedly makes men think about vaginas, which makes them think about wanting to have sex.

But it is more-or-less impossible to have sex without removing trousers. trousers may make fundies think about vaginas and sex, but skirts provide easy access (with consent) to said vagina. How is that more modest?

Am i the only one who feels it's ironic that I've now spent a decent amount of time comparing the crotch appropriateness of the skirted and non skirted duggars? I never would have thought to look on my own, but when someone says "don't look over there," how can you not look?

Agreed. Also her engagement photo shoot had a picture where you can see the outline of her legs due to the lighting. It wouldn't have been a big deal and I don't think people would have noticed or called attention to it except for the fact that they make such a big deal of how much the shape of women's bodies is immodest. It was super ironic to me that people who blur out knees and won't wear pants basically sent out an "immodest" picture for their daughters most sacred day.

I saw that one while I was searching for the original.  There are no words. (If it's not a parody. I couldn't tell)

I don't even think she needs shorter hair. I'm a very frugal person, I don't like spending a lot of money on expensive material things, for myself, but I do part with the money for GOOD shampoo and conditioner, that will make a huge difference. I do think she needs a trim to get the straggly ends off, but that is it, but she needs quality conditioner at least.  I swear by this stuff.

"Battle Hymn of the RePANTSlic"

 

Mine eyes have been entrapp-ed by the crotchal of the pants;
They are drawing all the male gaze for there is no way they can't;
Their fit is a debate and Bill Goth says they are bad:
Yet pants are marching on.

Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Yet pants are marching on.

At first it was Alyssa who put on the leg-ged wear,
Then came along sweet Jinger who obeys her husband Jer;
Now all around in Waco the crotch V is lay-ed bare:
Her pants are marching on.


Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Her pants are marching on.

Free Jinger likes to speculate on what the pants could mean:
Some say it's mostly nothing, others say she's breaking free;
Who knows what the truth is, certainly it is not me,
These threads are marching on!

Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
THESE THREADS. ARE. MARRRRRRCHING ONNNNNNNNN!

Bagels are just one of those things for a lot of us East Coasters. They just don't taste the same if they aren't from back home.
(I'm sure the west coast has great bagels too. [emoji4] )

I've spent a lot of time in NYC and on the west coast. Portland, OR has far better tap water than NYC but not better bagels, so I reject the water hypothesis. For some reason, people don't think bagels have to be boiled, so west coasters end up with fluffy, soft things masquerading as bagels. I was horrified when somebody recommended some "amazing bagels," which turned out to be closer to a croissant in texture. Sure, there are some NY transplants who give us something better than Einsteins, but ppl from NY never seem to think they're as good as their favorite NY bagel spot.

Incidentally, "crotch" has got to be one of the grossest words in the English language.

I'm from NJ, but I go to school around DC. Last semester when I went home for a long weekend, all of my NJ and NY friends made me bring back bagels   

Even though i think the tristate area has the best pizza, I have had some good pies down here. Has anyone ever tried Grotto's?

NJ represent!
Actually with summer coming I'm missing the shore a lot. We'd go to point pleasant every year. I could really go for a Kohr's custard right now. Well not right now since it's 10:30 in the morning. But you know what I mean.

Jinge would look adorable with shoulder length hair. And, as someone from the Texas border, it's much more suited to the heat. I'm happy to see her in pants. It might mean nothing in the long run, so I'm not gonna waste time analyzing it, but it makes me happy to see her looking more free than she has in years. I don't see her ever getting really free, but these little changes might make increase her happiness.
